── Goodbye northern land diesel limited express! Reproduce Okhotsk heavy snow on the last day of regular operation!
[Actual vehicle guide]
-The Kiha 183 series is a limited express diesel car that was created in 1979 as a successor to the aging Kiha 82 series in Hokkaido.
- Full-scale operation began in 1981 when mass-produced vehicles appeared, and gradually increased the number of vehicles that adapted to the snow and cold of Hokkaido.
-From 1986, the 500s, which had equipment and appearance that set them apart from the previous JNR vehicles, appeared. The green cars have undergone a major model change along with improved driving performance, such as adopting a high-decker structure with a good view.
-In addition, the 550 series, which aimed to improve engine output in order to improve driving performance, also appeared, contributing to the speed improvement of the limited express [Hokuto].
-In addition to the basic number, various numbers and forms have appeared due to remodeling and speeding up, etc., and the vehicle group has become rich in variety, including changes in exterior painting.
- Although it was active in intercity transportation for many years under the harsh environment of Hokkaido, it gradually gave way to successor vehicles, and the Sekihoku Main Line limited express [Okhotsk] [Daisetsu] will be the last place of activity. However, it will be retired due to the timetable revision in 2023, and regular operation ended on March 17 with the vehicle reprinted in the same paint as when it first appeared.
